Sakaguchi disses Wii, says Xbox 360 has better games

For those who thought that Hironobu Sakaguchi might come back to the loving bosom of Nintendo after his upcoming project with Microsoft might need to take a seat, as the man who was made famous after creating the Final Fantasy franchise has commented that he isn't all that interested in the Wii. Why isn't he interested in the system with the groundbreaking controls and mainstream accessibility? Turns out, he thinks the Xbox 360 has far better games than the competition.

Sakaguchi claimed "The system is intriguing, but right now, I have no plans on making a game for the Wii." He also commented on the Japanese market's complete apathy towards Microsoft's console. stating that there "are a lot of excellent games on the 360, far better games than what's on the Wii or PS3. But not a lot of people in Japan have a clear idea what games like Gears of War are all about." Maybe they don't get it because buckets of blood and the violence of extracting them from your virtual enemies isn't all that important to them? Maybe, just maybe, the Japanese enjoy, dare we say, fun games?
